HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2024-2025 season

[the valiant effort]

The Out of Town Thread is a sacred place where we gather to rip on the Leafs, lol at Makar breaking ankles, and when Michkov shows WJC-bound Bedard the what what in OT.

Take the performative whining, pearl clutching, and T. Carlson impressions over rumours, previous draft lists, and mysterious overseas deaths to management-related threads.

Apples to oranges

MB ran the Habs
Sergachev was a hab

Makes sense that posters on a Habs board discuss Habs related hockey stuff.

Michkov has zero relation to the Habs. He's one of hundreds of active NHLers that we didn't draft. The obsessive need to bring up his name every time he scores a point is pretty silly, even in the out of town thread.

Missing on a player in the draft has always been something most Habs fans liked to discuss, remember the Wickeinheiseir over Denis Savard, Napier over Bossy, Kostityn over Getzlaf and more recently and still talked about on this board KK over Thachuck.

Why should it be different with Reinbacher over Michkov.

The only reason i can think of, is beceause some here dont want to read about ''possible'' mistake made by this current Management staff.

There are many draft threads for that.

Out of town thread isn't about "Reinbacher over Michkov", now is it?

Nah... It's the obsessive need to rehash the same point every time a player not picked by us that seems unnecessary.

If a poster was commenting incessantly on Claude Giroux every time he scores (& what could've been instead of fisher), I'm sure you'd see the same irritation...

Michkov means very little to most posters, for whatever reason a few obsessing on him get something out of clogging up threads with irrelevant posts about him. Great young player, one of many that the Habs happened to not draft

Maybe you're right, since it was a decision impacting the rebuild these discussion should be more in ''the ''state of the rebuild thread''

Not so sure about that.

 

[Miller Time]

Not so sure about that.

"Most" ... from what I can tell, there's a very small group of posters who keep posting about him (in several threads until mods started cracking down on them). After that, some other posters do get sucked in replying but otherwise I don't see his name brought up.

Geez, are you serious , censored much.

Do you think it could be ''acceptable'' to discuss such thing as a draft choice made by Habs management in the ''state of the rebuild'' thread in HFHabs, i would be incline to say it should......what about you.

Nothing hits like the bruins imploding

No censorship...

Sure... Though I don't really see much point in repeating the same take every time a player we didn't select scores a point or has a big dump

Cool, i'll stop there wouldn't want to be sanctionned, enjoy the game

Maybe someone should start a thread specific to Habs picks and prospects bypassed by the Habs....

Kotkaniemi on the 4th line again

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Markstrom has given up 3 on 10 shots.

Hopefully Allen comes out for the 2nd.

Was honoured for 500 games and then shat the bed hard. Refs were legitimately out of their mind early on though, they think Monty is still a Bruin

 

[DesmondDekker]

Ouch Charlie, that really hurt.

 

[Tyson]

Kotkaniemi on the 4th line again

Well he is a 4th liner

 

[the valiant effort]

Well he is a 4th liner

The catalyst to Necas’s success you mean

At the end of the day we’re all here waiting for @sampollock to comment on the “figs” after a 5-1 loss

 

[Skip Bayless]

This is the worst own goal I've seen in hockey. Charlie Lindgren should be investigated for gambling.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Toronto got shit kicked by Florida 5-1. Good to see.

Vancouver almost came back from a 5-1 deficit against Pens. They end up losing 5-4.

Goalie goal! His team did him a solid and scored twice to win it in regulation anyway.

Caps still won so if he gambled he lost money.

Needed Toronto to win. Florida deserves to be shit kicked every game. And it may be needed if Calgary falls to bottom 10.

 

[RabbleMasterBlaster]

I thought then, like I think now, that Habs should always draft defensemen ahead of forwards. It's a more impactful position both on the ice and in terms of blue chip trade potential.

Michkov might end up with a fine career, but Canadiens have sufficient small talented wingers that I'm doubting he would move the competitive needle on our team all that much. Maybe more entertaining, yes, but I want wins too.

We can only hope that Rein turns into a bona fide #1 stud eventually. Ultimately impact D man > impact forward (unless your name is Patrice Bergeron). Ie Cale Makar > Nathan Mackinnon

I vote that Bergevin throwing the puck in his own net still trumps it.
